The Ping Ball Launcher combines the two favorites, building and making things fly. This activity comes with all the components to build an adjustable launcher base and a launcher mechanism. From there choose a design purpose. Do you want to hit a target at a given distance? Do you want to launch the ping pong ball the highest or farthest? Is consistency important? How do the constants or variables affect your results (angle of trajectory, gravity, stored energy, mass, range, environment, etc.)?  Now design, build, implement and innovate with your launcher to allow for experimentation with the elements of projectile motion.

How about building catapult, ram, sling shot, kicker or whatever else you can imagine to launch the ball and achieve your goals.
